paulb@106 | 69 | <li>Where multiple fields exist and can be added and removed, put |
paulb@106 | 70 | them inside a separate element so that the selectors can successfully |
paulb@106 | 71 | identify them. Otherwise, changing element orders can result in the |
paulb@106 | 72 | wrong element being selected.</li> |
paulb@119 | 73 | |
paulb@129 | 74 | |
paulb@106 | 75 | <li>Make sure that transformations on the input document produce all |
paulb@106 | 76 | the necessary elements for the output document so that the resulting |
paulb@106 | 77 | page gives the user the opportunity to specify data that is missing.</li> |
